At the installation proccess, I go up to part disk. Then it shows me that it made the new Plan9 partition (2.45GB), so I type 'w' and 'q'. Then I get this: Preparing menu... read: i/o error and it prompts me again to partdisk, and it never ends. I really don't think that this is the hard disks problem, it's a barely used 160GB Maxtor drive. Has anyone had any problems similar to this? Could it be because some of the hardware? (Unlikely, but...)
